THAT was awesome!!! Go Fins!!!
Mike you are right, the Chargers had some great teams under Brees & Rivers but the former GM A.J. Smith had a big ego and he did not resign a lot of key players because it was his way or the highway. Norv Turner & Mike Mc Coy are good offensive coordinators but not leader of men as coaches. Just my two cents as a former season ticket holder.

Agree 100% also as a season ticket holder during that era. A.J's feud with Marty Schottenheimer killed the team.

Didn't he fire Marty after a 14-2 season?

Yup... he sure did.

... and Marlon McCree’s Fumble cost him a super bowl.

It was just one guy... the GM. They didn't even speak to each other.

LT and the rest of the crew loved him.

What's up with ESPN's scroll about what it takes for some teams to win. I know it's numbers and stats to theoretically get in but wow.

The Vikings can get in by Dallas, TB, Atlanta, GB, Seattle, Arizona, Redskins all losing, and the Giants and Detroit go to the AFC. I swear that is what it said at one point.

Matt McGloin has to step up for the Raiders. He has some play makers around him. This is his moment. The Raiders need to beat Denver to give McGoin even more time to prepare for playoff football. Go Raidernation!

You won't be, they'll be lucky to stay within seven. Keeping with the 'getting lucky' theme, Matt Stafford will bring that home field luck, ah, l mean skill to Sunday night football and pull off his ninth forth quarter comeback for the Detroit Lions to wrap up there first North Division title since 1993. 34-31. Hey, a fan can dream, right? Lol.

I certainly hope so. I'm going to the game. I've been offered $400 for my pair of seats and on line seats in our section near our row we're going for $380 a piece before Christmas. That would nearly pay for that set of tires im gonna need in the spring!

Win and we're in. It can go from number two seed and a week off or not making it at all. Considering that al the 'experts' said 4-12, or 5-11, locals had us no better than 7-9, playing for the division title is amazing! Congrats on the Phins getting in. What is Tannehill's status for the play offs? Giants win and we are in no matter what.
